Use this basic vinaigrette as a guide and change your vinegar/oil flavors to come up with varying combinations to create exciting salads. You can add other flavors such as crushed or roasted garlic, chopped shallots, fresh or dried herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, honey, lemon juice, or flavored vinegars.

Want something quick, easy and super satisfying, try this smoothie! I made this one morning during a snow storm at work from the few ingredients I could salvage from the office kitchen. I love using my Cuisinart Smart Stick so much at home that I bought a 2nd one to keep in the office. Some frozen grapes from the freezer, peanut butter and unsweetened almond milk blended in a glass and OMG you will not believe how yummy this is. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
